Nepal is the world's only Hindu Kingdom, Hinduism being the state religion. Since 1991, there has been freedom for all to profess and practice their religion, but not to proselytize.
However, persecution of believers still occurs and will probably continue as long as the church continues its rapid growth.

The increase in tourism is providing an excellent opportunity for Christians to visit this remote land and minister the Gospel of Jesus to these needy peoples.

For further information and specific prayer points for Nepal, look up the book "Operation World" by Patrick Johnstone.
